Vinnie "The Shark" Cementshoes told the spoof that his grandfather went to jail for the rates he's charging:' Da computer's a wondaful ting!"
Hockshop and Threeballs have been competing for the pawnshop online market. Desperate people are borrowing pittances for really valuable treasures. Before long they default on the loan and the priceless valuables become the virtual pawnshop's property.
